Description
(North to South)

Near the end of the gravel road, a stile leads over the fence and across paddocks. The track climbs steeply for a kilometre through pasture and pine forest to a height of 250m.  Enjoy the wide views across the Wairoa Riverflats towards the Hauraki Gulf, its eastern islands, and the Coromandel Peninsula. 

The track then goes through a small bit of regenerating native forest to join up with the Clevedon Reserve Circuit.   At this junction, turns right and climb  briefly uphill to a lookout platform. Then continue along on a high-quality track to exit at the Clevedon Reserve and proceed out to North Road.

A short SW roadwalk takes you into Clevedon Village.
